Northcote - Goodnight

Текст песни

Me and all my friends used to play in bands
T-shirts of our favourites hanging in our closets
With records that we swore no-one else
Could ever get their hands on
We started out sane
Spread ourselves thin
With all-ages shows
And playing in empty clubs
Pour our words into shapes
Broke our credit, left our tickets unpaid
I remember Van Collins and broken glass
Nervous nights spilling on the floor
We tried praying we tried drinking
But we never tried a cover song
Now I leave my jacket on
The back of the chair on the table at home
Where I sit on at night and sing until the morning
In a dim light, a little whiskey and little lies
Help me be okay with another night
Just another stage, so enjoy the ride
Turn off the lights and say goodnight
I was hanging at the college house last night
Not looking for girls or fights or advice
Just bottles on the ground
All is well when the world is spinning around
The days are moving fast and
My mind is going slow
The trap has been set for me
The pills have been swallowed
I still care about the dream
I gave up about a year ago
Now I leave my jacket on
The back of the chair on the table at home
Where I sit on at night and sing until the morning
In a dim light, a little whiskey and little lies
Help me be okay with another night
Just another stage, just enjoy the ride
Turn off the lights and say goodnight
